Letter: Keep an eye on your pets

I enjoy dogs and cats as much as most people. I'm allergic to their dander, but I still enjoy their company.

What I do not enjoy is their constant and continuous barking.

There is a limit to what my nerves can handle and my nerves went wild on Saturday, June 15. I actually drove to a stranger's home after asking a couple if they knew where this particular dog's barking was coming from.

I wrote a note begging them to get their dog to stop barking. It is now Sunday, Father's Day, 3:30 a.m., and the dog is no longer barking. It barked all day and all night long.

People, take care of your pets. They will serve you well and take care of you the best they can. All they ask in return is that you take care of them — food, shelter, water and company.

If you have to leave your pet home alone, please place them in a safe environment where they will be content and your neighbors' nerves and blood pressure will be content.
